N dubt ne f China’s greatest resurces is its diverse cuisine. One f the mst ppular fds t be fund is n dubt the street snacks that make up a large part f everyday life. “Cmpared with A Bite f China, which shwcases chefs’ cking prcesses and demnstrates delicius cuisine n air, Chinese Barbecue is mre dwn-t-earth in depicting the peple,” cmmented a viewer.
The new dcumentary series, called Chinese Barbecue, tells the stry f this ppular fd ptin that sizzles (咝咝作响) ver ht cals n just abut every street crner in cities and twns acrss the cuntry. Barbecued meat shining ver ht cal cntainers, while nt as elegant as sme f the fine dining ptins in China, is an essential part f peple’s night life. The pleasant smell and atmsphere surrunding the grilled (烤的) street fd is “smething that culd entice peple t fly dwnstairs at night,” the dcumentary claims.
In many Chinese eyes, barbecue, regarded as the mst rdinary and cmmn night street snack, is different frm hmemade fd by mthers which is a symbl f kinship (亲切感). Barbecue is where yu becme cnnected t peple in sciety. And unlike fficial business lunches, during which peple are rather reserved and plite, barbecue lets peple cut lse and relax with ld friends and newly made friends, leaving a lasting impressin f friendship.
On the ther side f the wrld, in the United States, BBQ, well received by all ages, demnstrates the even mre enthusiastic persnality f Americans, wh grill large steaks n their utdr stves at hme and enjy cmpeting t see wh has the better cking skills. It’s safe t say that the wrld, as a whle, hlds deep-rted gd feelings tward barbecue, either fr the taste r the warmth generated by fire.

B．It is served with delicate dishes.
C．It helps keep peple cnnected.
D．It requires a mre reserved and plite atmsphere.

I am a prduct f mixed cultures (dad is Arab, mm is American), and I have grwn up with cultural differences all my life.

It is very cmmn, and nt cnsidered rude t ask a persn’s age in Japan when yu meet them fr the first time.

Hand gestures and signals are always better t use nly in yur hme cuntry where yu understand what they mean. In Turkey, fr example, allwing yur thumb t prtrude between yur secnd and third finger in a fist is extremely rude. Als, dn’t make an “OK” gesture, unless yu mean t call smene a fl.
Dn’t tuch anyne’s head in Malaysia, especially babies. Pinting is als cnsidered rude in Malaysia, where directins are nrmally given with an pen hand.
Giving gifts in China can get yu int truble. Certain gifts in China can cause great ffence, such as giving cut flwers, which is nly dne at funerals. Giving a clck is seen as bad luck since the wrds “giving a clck” sund just like the wrds “attending a funeral”. A gift f shes wuld be interpreted as giving a gift f evil. Nthing is expected t be assciated with the wrd “fur” because it sunds like the wrd “death”.

32．答案：①a②began③living④itself⑤it⑥published⑦which⑧rughly⑨t maintain⑩better
解析：①a考查冠词。句意：在中国，猎人用狗来帮助追踪和杀死大熊猫，直到中国颁布了一项保护大熊猫的法律。泛指“一项法律”，用冠词修饰，且law首字母的发音为辅音因素。故填a。
②began考查时态。句意：研究人员开始调查时，两只圈养出生的大熊猫被狗袭击，这两只大熊猫被放归李子坪自然保护区。陈述过去发生的事情，为一般过去时。故填began。
③living考查非谓语。句意：熊猫保护区里有狗，因为有村民住在保护区附近，人们养狗。空处为非谓语动词，villagers与live为主动关系，用现在分词作定语 。故填living。
④itself考查反身代词。句意：一只成年熊猫完全有能力保护自己不受一只狗的伤害。分析可知，所填应是动词“defend”的宾语，与主语“An adult panda”一致，因此应用反身代词。故填itself。
⑤it考查代词。句意：然而，它很难打败一群狗。it+be+形容词+t d sth，为固定句型，it作形式主语，真正的主语为动词不定式。故填it。
⑥published考查非谓语。句意：在发表在《科学报告》上的这项研究中，研究人员发现狗每晚可以游荡超过10公里，其中一些甚至生活在保护区。study与publishing为被动关系，用过去分词作定语。 故填published。
⑦which考查定语从句。句意：在发表在《科学报告》上的这项研究中，研究人员发现狗每晚可以游荡超过10公里，其中一些甚至生活在保护区。先行词为dgs，做非限制性定语从句中f的宾语，关系代词为which。故填which。
⑧rughly考查副词。句意：早期的研究发现，熊猫需要大约114平方公里的栖息地才能茁壮成长。副词rughly作状语修饰下文的数字。故填rughly。
⑨t maintain考查不定式。句意：虽然大多数熊猫的自然保护区都足够大，足以维持它们的数量，但如果狗成为其中的一部分，熊猫的领地可能会变小。be enugh t d sth为固定短语。故填t maintain。
⑩better考查形容词比较级。句意：“所以情况正在好转，”研究报告的合著者詹姆斯·斯波蒂拉说。分析可知，“are getting”此处意为“正变得”，之后接形容词作表语，且根据空前“much”可知，应是比较级。故填better
